Interesting link, DDark. I vistited it and it's fairly
interesting...like a gamer's/TV fan's version of National Lampoon
mixed with MST3k. And with the upcoming Street Fighter movie, timely
too.

Huh, OK. I'd never seen the thing, but my tastes towards video
games run along the lines of Europa Universalis (grand strategy history
simulation) and Roller Coaster Tycoon 3. Neither of those really lend
themselves to jokes. ``Way to botch the Counter-Reformation, Burgundy!
Why don't you just conquer Nantes while you're at it?'' ``This Wild
Mouse has all the inherent wildness of a deceased hamster.'' It's just
not really working.

That looks like an interesting page. And talk about interesting
timing, just when I went to bookmark it, a handful of Final Fantasy
victory fanfares came up in the playlist I was listening to at the
time.
